Aastra, a leading company at the forefront of the enterprise communication market, will be demonstrating voice and video solutions tailored for the Higher Education market at the EDUCAUSE 2012 Annual Conference in Denver, Colorado. Aastra?s Hosted Clearspan? Unified Communications solution offered by Internet2 will be featured along with the Aastra BluStar? Ecosystem for video and mobility collaboration.

The Internet2 Hosted PBX Solution powered by Aastra Clearspan is a complete solution for unified communications providing all of the applications an institution?s employees need, at any of the locations where they work, on any of the devices they use. It not only offers classic PBX-like services, but also a rich set of enhanced services including unified messaging, fixed-mobile convergence, interactive voice response, conferencing, collaboration and call center applications. Clearspan allows employees to make and receive calls from any device, at any location, with only one phone number, one dial plan, one voice mailbox, and a unified set of features.

Aastra will also be demonstrating a host of collaboration applications designed to increase flexibility and improve productivity. Clearspan Communicator? is a unified communications client for the PC, MAC, iPad, iPhone and Android platforms which integrates with the enterprise directory and personal contacts and can be used to make and receive both voice and video calls. Aastra OnDemand? Web Collaboration is a feature-rich web and video conferencing tool for hosting online meetings, webinars and training, providing users with the ability to share documents and applications, use an interactive whiteboard, conduct group or private chat, polling and much more.

The Aastra BluStar Ecosystem includes the 8000i Desktop Media Phone and BluStar clients for PC, iPad and iPhone. The BluStar Ecosystem provides businesses with a comprehensive, end-to-end UC solution with a versatile client that can be used across devices. BluStar offers a totally natural collaboration experience and fully embraces trends such as BYOD (Bring Your Own Device). It helps users work together more effectively ? for example, on demand video conferencing with remote workers, road-warriors and teams working on the same project to exchange ideas more easily and collaboratively. Aastra?s focus across the portfolio is a unified customer experience, facilitating adoption with a consistent look and feel, regardless of the device used, while enabling users to be more productive.

?Over 30 years delivering voice communications solutions to Higher Ed institutions has given Aastra a deep understanding of the unique needs of this marketplace,? stated Tim Whittington, Aastra Regional President, North America. ?EDUCAUSE is widely recognized as the go-to source for IT information for colleges and universities, and we are pleased to have the opportunity again this year to interact with its members.
